Read the excerpt from "Last Rites of the Indian Dead."
Some targets of the Army's study were killed in noncombat situations and beheaded immediately. The officer's account of the decapitation of the Apache chief Mangas Coloradas in 1863 shows the pseudoscientific nature of the exercise. "I weighed the brain and measured the skull" the good doctor wrote "and found that while the skull was smaller the brain was larger than that of Daniel Webster.
How does Harjo's style affect her message?
Select 2 correct answer(s)
Question 2 options:

By including the doctor's observation that "the brain was larger than that of Daniel Webster" she establishes American Indians' superior intelligence.

She uses graphic language to demonstrate the level of violence inflicted on American Indians by the American government.

By referring to the "good" doctor Harjo uses sarcasm to emphasize her outrage over the inhumane treatment of American Indians for unproductive research.

When Harjo cites historical facts she establishes her credibility as someone qualified to speak on behalf of American Indians.
